Excerpt from Sales Promotion Services Industry Profile

The promotional products industry reported global sales of more than $25 billion, according to a report from trade group Promotional Products Association International (PPAI).

COMPETITIVE LANDSCAPE

Demand is driven by economic growth and by corporate profits. The profitability of individual companies depends on efficient order fulfillment and marketing. Large companies have economies of scale in procurement and the ability to offer other marketing services. Small companies specialize by type of sales promotion product and differentiate themselves on customer service, particularly speed of delivery. The US industry is fragmented: the top 50 companies account for about 40% of revenue. Sales promotion products are often viewed as discretionary expenses that can be cut during economic downturns. Competition comes from office supply stores, print shops, and ad agencies that offer promotional products as part of larger, integrated marketing programs. These competitors may be able to leverage their brand recognition and existing relationships with customers to expand into sales promotion products.
